▼ The primary advances in creating a point-of-care testing (PoCT) diagnostic platform involve miniaturizing assays based on recognition of biomarker antigens with antibodies. This approach has inherent issues with time-sensitive pathologies because of the inherently slow speed of antibodyantigen interactions. Such an obstacle can be overcome through use of faster enzymatic reactions. In this work, we focused on creating an enzymatic based PoCT diagnostic platform suitable for timesensitive pathologies, in particular addressing stroke. We hypothesize that by immobilizing enzymes to nanoparticles (NP) the enzymes will be stabilized and confined to a smaller volume, therefore increasing the efficiency of sequential enzymatic reactions needed to detect biomarkers at physiological and pathological levels in human serum and transduce that detection into a luminescent signal. Development of this platform involved several key steps, including immobilizing functional enzymes on inorganic surfaces and developing microfluidic systems with microliter-volume reactions. Because the use of immobilized enzymes in hybrid organic-inorganic devices is in a nascent stage of development, it is also essential to work out fundamental principles of how the inorganic scaffolds might affect the activities of the tethered enzymes. Through biomimicry of the sperm flagellum, enzymes were designed to include a His-tag to bind with Ni-NTA groups on an inorganic surface in a precise orientation. This approach yielded higher specific activity than did attachment of the same enzymes through adsorption or chemically-specific binding (e.g. amine-carboxyl) techniques. While the orientation had dramatic impacts on the
enzyme function, the surface size/curvature to which it is bound also influenced the
enzyme function. Prior literature on this relationship was largely anecdotal. To identify generalizable truths regarding the iii effects of the surface size and curvature on
enzyme function, we used three enzymes, each representing a different class of
enzyme, at maximal
enzyme loading and in monolayers on gold NPs ranging in size from 5 to 50 nm in diameter. We found that larger NPs had increased
enzyme multilayer formations and decreased kcat and specific activity by 2.8 to 8.3 fold, depending on the
enzyme. Contrary to other reports and suggesting an advantage for oriented
immobilization, we did not see effects of size on the same enzymes when tethered in monolayers. Tethering to NPs has immediate application in medical diagnosis of time-sensitive pathologies due to enzymes' rapid catalysis versus slow antibody interactions. Neuron specific enolase (NSE) is a biomarker for stroke, which we detected through the sequential reaction of tethered luciferase (Luc) and pyruvate kinase (PK), yielding a luminescent signal proportional to the concentration of enolase in our samples. In both rat stroke models and human patient samples, we found this diagnostic platform gave accurate results in 10 minutes compared to typical 4 hour ELISA tests, yet maintained a high…

▼ The medical community increasingly relies on quantification of biomarkers in blood, urine, and saliva to monitor treatments and screen for diseases. While glucose meters have been around since the 1980s only two biosensors have gained success in commercial applications, the glucose meter and the pregnancy test. The majority of biomarkers are quantified using a benchtop analytical system developed specifically for one biomarker. We developed a portable, calorimetric biosensor, which has the capability of quantifying a large variety of biomarkers. Specifically, our goal was to develop this biosensor to quantify creatinine in human urine samples. Further, we sought to develop a sensitive and robust calorimeter, in which the
enzyme containing cartridge could be quickly removed and replaced. To achieve this, we implemented a highly sensitive Y-cut quartz crystal resonator as the sensing mechanism in this calorimetric biosensor. The high-temperature sensitivity of the quartz resonator enables a sensitive calorimetric system despite the separation between the fluid of interest and the sensor through 100 μm gap of air. Moreover, to further improve the calorimetric performance of this device we implemented a second quartz resonator, which acts as a reference sensor to eliminate spurious noise from thermal fluctuations. Additionally, we evaluate three
enzyme immobilization techniques: glutaraldehyde crosslinking, electrostatic layer-by-layer
immobilization, and alginate entrapment using both a fluorescent assay and the calorimetric biosensor. This work is concluded by quantifying the concentration of creatinine in human urine samples. The creatinine concentrations determined using the biosensors were compared against those determined through an HPLC technique. This Ph.D. work has successfully demonstrated the development of a calorimetric biosensor, specifically for the quantification of creatinine in human urine samples.

▼ The process of immobilizing enzymes onto solid supports for bioreactions has some compelling advantages compared to their solution-based counterpart including the facile separation of enzyme from products, elimination of enzyme autodigestion, and increased enzyme stability and activity. We report in this work, the immobilization of λ-exonuclease onto poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) micro- and nano-pillars populated within a fluidic devices for the micro and nanoscale on-chip digestion of double-stranded DNA. Enzyme immobilization in both studies was successfully accomplished using 3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide/N-hydroxysuccinimide (EDC/NHS) coupling to carboxylic acid functionalized PMMA micropillars. Our micro-scale results suggest that the reaction efficiency for the catalysis of dsDNA digestion using λ-exonuclease, including its processivity and reaction rate, were higher when the enzyme was attached to a solid support compared to the free solution digestion. We obtained a clipping rate of 1.0 x 103 nucleotides s-1 for the digestion of λ-DNA (48.5 kbp) by λ-exonuclease. We suggest that the kinetic behavior of this solid-phase reactor could be described by a fractal Michaelis-Menten. Preliminary nano-scale λ-Exo immobilization experiments reveal potential enzymatic activity changes as observed in reduced digestion rates (~303 nucleotides s-1). Further studies will deduce reasoning for these observed differences. Simulation of the nanofluidic reactors reveal kinetic behavior to be mass transport limited, a result not expected due to the reduction in reactor dimensions. Nonetheless, the results from these studies work will have important ramifications in new single-molecule DNA sequencing strategies that employ free mononucleotide identification. As a step towards this goal, an investigation of the dynamics of DNA in these irregularly shaped structures has been performed.

▼ Mesoporous silica nanoparticles provide a non-invasive and biocompatible
delivery platform for a broad range of applications in therapeutics, pharmaceuticals
and diagnosis. Additionally, mesoporous silica materials can be synthesized
together with other nanomaterials to create new nanocomposites, opening up a
wide variety of potential applications. The ready functionalization of silica
materials makes them ideal candidates for bioapplications and catalysis. These
properties of mesoporous silica like high surface areas, large pore volumes and
ordered pore networks allow them for higher loading of drugs or biomolecules.
Comparative studies have been made to evaluate the different procedures;
much of the research to date has involved quick exploration of new methods
and supports. Requirements for different enzymes may vary, and specific
conditions may be needed for a particular application of an immobilized
enzyme such as a highly rigid support.
In this endeavor, mesoporous silica materials having different pore size
were synthesized and easily modified with active functional groups and were
evaluated for the immobilization of enzymes. In this work, Aspergillus niger
glucoamylase, Bovine liver catalase, Candida rugosa lipase were immobilized
onto support by adsorption and covalent binding. The structural properties of
pure and immobilized supports are analyzed by various characterization
techniques and are used for different reactions of industrial applications.

▼ Surface-immobilized enzymes are important for a wide range of technological applications, including industrial catalysis, drug delivery, medical diagnosis and biosensors. However, our understanding of how enzymes and proteins interact with abiological surfaces on the molecular level remains extremely limited. We have compared the structure, activity and thermal stability of beta-galactosidase variants attached to a chemically well-defined self assembled monolayer (SAM) surface. Maleimide-terminated ethylene glycol linkers were used to attach beta-galactosidase through a unique cysteinyl residue. These maleimide-terminated linkers were mixed with ethylene glycol linkers terminated with different chemical moieties to engineer surfaces with varying hydrophobicity and electrostatic charge. In collaboration with the Chen Lab, we used SFG and ATR-FTIR to experimentally measure the orientation of the surface tethered
enzyme. In collaboration with the Brooks Lab, we conducted coarse grain model simulations to examine the atomic level interactions between the protein and the surface. Through coarse grain modelling, it was shown that the increased range of motion allowed to an
enzyme tethered to a flexible loop region increased the number of protein surface interactions relative to the interactions experienced by an
enzyme attached to the helix. For mildly hydrophibic surfaces, such as a full maleimide-terminated SAM, these increased interactions are destabilizing. This was confirmed experimentally by the reduction in thermal stability for beta-galactosidase attached by the loop region. Using SFG, it was shown that the distribution of orientations of an
enzyme attached to a loop is greater than to an
enzyme tethered to a helix. By varying the electrostatic properties of the terminal groups used in the SAMs, it was shown that beta-galactosidase immobilized onto SAMs containing a mixture of positively and negatively terminated residues retained a higher level of specific activity than surfaces terminated with either uncharged hydrophilic or hydrophobic surfaces. Thermal stability was highest on uncharged hydrophilic surfaces. Overall, we were able to develop a molecular level model for the behavior of surface attached enzymes, and a potential approach for predicting approaches for engineering tethered
enzyme systems.

▼ Food industry waste streams represent a significant environmental burden. These waste streams, rich in sugars, proteins, and lipids, can be transformed into value-added products. Enzymes provide a selective and greener route of synthesis, but lack stability in extreme environments, and the ability to be reused. Therefore, the present work studied immobilized enzymes for practical application in two major waste streams: oil and dairy. First, lipase B from Candida antarctica (E.C. 3.1.1.3) was immobilized within cross-linked microparticles (CLMP) displaying varying scales of support, and the influence of these nano- and macroscale support materials on lipase activity and stability was studied. Kinetic analysis and extreme environment testing revealed that that polydicyclopentadiene macrostructure had the greatest influence on stability. These CLMPs successfully produced surfactants from lauric acid and D-glucose. However, the ~10 µm particles were unrecoverable from viscous solvents. Next, lipase was immobilized into macroscale, polymerized high internal phase emulsions (HIPE) to facilitate ease of handling. After fabrication, HIPEs displayed an increase in activity (139±9.7%) over native lipase. However, lipase was weakly immobilized, and retained less than 10% relative activity after 5 washes. HIPEs retained above 40% relative activity after exposure to pH 3, 7, and 10 for 24 hours, effectively expanding the working range of lipase. HIPEs also displayed an increase in relative activity after storage at 20 ˚C and 40 ˚C for 24 hours and retained greater than 40% activity after storage in 50 ˚C and 60 ˚C for 24 hours. These macroscale HIPEs were recoverable from reaction media but require further optimization to increase protein retention. Finally, β-galactosidase from Aspergillus oryzae (E.C. 3.2.1.23) and glucose isomerase (E.C. 5.3.1.5) were co-immobilized within a cross-linked
enzyme aggregate (combi-CLEA) for dairy waste upcycling. The β-galactosidase within the combi-CLEA retained approximately 10% activity after
immobilization, but activity was unable to be detected from glucose isomerase. Additional optimization of the combi-CLEA is necessary before application testing in whey permeate. Applications-based approaches to
enzyme immobilization are necessary to create low-cost, industrially relevant catalysts. Through the understanding of support material influences, and extreme environment testing, enzymes have the potential to increase the overall sustainability of food processing.

▼ Over the last decades, the sharp increases in industrial polycarbonate and epoxy production and fossil fuel consumption have resulted in emerging environmental challenges like micropollutant and greenhouse gas, which require novel mitigation approaches.
Enzyme catalyzed reactions have been recognized as promising approaches for many environmental applications. Among different enzymes, laccase and carbonic anhydrase have attracted wide spread interest in wastewater treatment and CO2 capture respectively. However, the application of free
enzyme is restricted due to the difficulty in recycle and reuse. Therefore, efficient
enzyme immobilization and bio-reactor design are required.Based on a series of comprehensive experimental researches, the performance of TiO2 nanoparticle and TiO2 nanoparticle functionalized membrane as laccase
immobilization support has been evaluated. Different
immobilization techniques were compared and the sequential process was regarded as the optimal option due to its relatively high activity and stability. It was also found that the nanoparticle size, surface charge, and laccase accessibility also had significant effect on the immobilized laccase performance.TiO2 functionalized membranes were prepared with both nanoparticle blending and sol-gel coating processes, then laccase was immobilized on the resultant membranes. Compared with the blended membrane, the coated membrane provided more accessible TiO2 for laccase
immobilization thus resulted in better performances. The effect of coating layer surface architectural properties and the membrane pore size on the laccase
immobilization performance was also discussed.In this study, two laccase based membrane bioreactors were proposed for bisphenol-A (BPA) degradation: the bio-catalytic membrane reactor and the bio-catalytic nanoparticle suspension membrane hybrid reactor. For both reactors, satisfactory BPA removal was achieved through enzymatically degradation and membrane filtration process. In addition, the performance of the hybrid reactor under simulated wastewater harsh conditions was assessed to evaluate the feasibility of using such reactors for municipal water treatment.Finally, the feasibility of applying the TiO2 nanoparticle and TiO2 coated polymer membrane as carbonic anhydrase
immobilization support was also explored. This study also prepared a novel TiO2 functionalized hydrophilic-hydrophobic membrane for carbonic anhydrase
immobilization. Such a bio-catalytic membrane was further used for CO2 hydration with a gas-liquid contactor, and nearly 100 % improvement in CO2 hydration rate was obtained

▼ Biomimetic catalysis has great impact on the
development of the research of organic catalysis1. Immobilized
enzyme used as catalysts has attracted a lot of attention because
of its high stability and the excellent ability of recovering from
the reaction environment. Furthermore, the activity of immobilized
enzyme can be retained after long-term storage or exposure to high
temperatures2,3. In this study,
Immobilization of GOx was achieved
by adsorption and encapsulation of GOx onto porous polymer support,
and catalytic activity of GOx immobilized porous support was
evaluated by testing the formation of H2O2. On the other hand,
biological sequestration of carbon dioxide (CO2) is one of the
proposed approaches for CO2 unitization. Carbonic anhydrase was
chose as catalyst to study the catalytic reaction of CO2. The
reaction was in situ monitored by Attenuated total reflectance
(ATR), the preliminary results indicated the formation of

▼ Several natural and synthetic supports have been assessed for their efficiency
for enzyme immobilization. Synthetic polymer materials are prepared by chemical
polymerization using various monomers. As a kind of important carrier, synthetic
polymer materials exhibit the advantages of good mechanical rigidity, high specific
surface area, inertness to microbial attack, easy to change their surface characteristics,
and their potential for bringing specific functional group according to actual needs.
Hence, they have been widely investigated and used for enzyme immobilization.
When it comes to the natural polymer materials, much attention has been paid
to cellulose and other natural polymer materials owing to their wide range of sources,
easy modification, nontoxic, and pollution-free, with a possibility of introducing wide
variety of functional groups and good biocompatible properties.
In this work report the use of synthetic polymer, polypyrrole and its
derivatives and natural polymers coconut fiber and sugarcane bagasse as supports for
Diastase α- amylase immobilization. An attempt was also made to functionalize both
synthetic and natural polymers using Amino-propyl triethoxysilane. Supports and their
immobilized forms were characterized via FT-IR, TG, SEM, XRD, BET and EDS
techniques. Immobilization parameters were also optimized so as to prepare stable
immobilized biocatalyst for starch hydrolysis.

▼ This thesis investigates plasma immersion ion implantation (PIII) for immobilizing enzymes and yeast cells with the aim of developing new processes for cellulosic ethanol production. A rapid and effective immobilization of yeast cells was demonstrated on PIII treated polymer surfaces. The immobilization does not inhibit the ability of yeast cells to produce ethanol. A model was developed to describe the different mechanisms of rehydrated yeast attachment to untreated and PIII treated surfaces. Yeast cells attach to the untreated surface by hydrophobic interactions while they attach to the PIII treated surface by covalent bonds. The immobilization of yeast cells on the PIII treated surface was found to greatly enhance their resistance to shear forces. In low ionic strength solution, pH was found to be a control factor for the immobilization through the effect of surface and molecule charges. Acidic buffers (pH 3-5) facilitate the immobilization on the PIII treated surface while alkaline buffers (pH 6-10) prevent it. Allylamine exposure was demonstrated to reduce the negative charge of the PIII treated surface in solution and thereby improve the yeast attachment. CelB, an enzyme which has both endo- and exo-glucanase activities, was covalently immobilized on a PIII treated polymer. Immobilized celB shows the Arrhenius behaviour of the activity as a function of temperature. Approximately 70% of the immobilized celB activity was retained after 4 usage cycles. When used together with immobilized ß-glucosidase, immobilized celB activity is enhanced. A simultaneous saccharification and fermentation process using immobilized enzymes (celB and ß-glucosidase) and immobilized yeast cells under a flow regime was demonstrated to illustrate the potential of using this immobilization technique in continuous flow processes with increased utilisation of expensive enzymes.

▼ Lipases (EC 3.1.1.3) são um grupo de enzimas que catalisam a hidrólise e síntese de triacilgliceróis. Estas enzimas apresentam estabilidade em diversos solventes orgânicos, podendo ser aplicadas como biocatalisadores em vários processos anteriormente realizados apenas por catalisadores químicos. Este trabalho teve como objetivo produzir, purificar e imobilizar lipases de Staphylococcus warneri EX17, cepa capaz de utilizar glicerol como fonte de carbono. Inicialmente, as condições de cultivo para produção de lipases foram otimizadas através de duas ferramentas de planejamento experimental: delineamento Placket Burman (P-B) e delineamento composto central rotacional (DCCR). Determinou-se que as melhores condições para produção desta enzima são: temperatura de 36 °C; pH 8,1; 30 g/L de glicerol; 3,0 g/L de óleo de oliva e 2,5 g/L de óleo de soja. Também se verificou ser possível a utilização de glicerol residual, oriundo da síntese enzimática de biodiesel como fonte de carbono. O extrato enzimático mostrou-se estável em três solventes orgânicos testados (metanol, etanol e η-hexano). Ainda visando a otimização das condições de cultivo, foram realizados cultivos submersos em biorreatores a fim de estudar a influência da taxa volumétrica de transferência de oxigênio (kLa) e do controle do pH, na produção da enzima. A maior produção de lipases ocorreu quando aplicado um kLa de 38 h-1 e com o pH controlado em 7,0 ao longo do cultivo, o que permitiu aumentar a produção da enzima em 5 vezes, em relação ao obtido nas condições anteriormente empregadas. A purificação da lipase foi realizada baseando-se no mecanismo de ativação interfacial destas enzimas sobre superfícies hidrofóbicas. Duas resinas foram testadas, octil-Sepharose e butil- Toyopearl. A lipase produzida foi purificada em apenas um passo utilizando esta última resina. Foi estudada a hiperativação da lipase purificada na presença de detergentes, a atividade lipolítica foi aumentada em 2,5 vezes na presença de 0,1% de Triton X-100. A lipase purificada foi imobilizada através de três estratégias: adsorção em suporte hidrofóbico; união covalente unipontual e união covalente multipontual. A influência da imobilização na modulação das propriedades da enzima foi estudada. A lipase apresentou maior estabilidade quando imobilizada multipontualmente. A hidrólise de distintos ésteres quirais pelos diferentes biocatalisadores obtidos também foi estudada. Os ésteres utilizados foram: (±) mandelato de metila, (±)-2-O-butiril-2-fenilacético e (±)-2-hidroxi-4-fenilbutirato de etilo. A especificidade da enzima foi muito dependente do método de imobilização, sendo que a lipase imobilizada unipontualmente foi mais específica para o substrato (±)-2-hidroxi-4-fenilbutirato de etilo, enquanto que para os outros dois substratos foi a lipase adsorvida hidrofobicamente. Este estudo demonstrou que a lipase de S. warneri EX17 pode ser produzida utilizando glicerol residual como fonte de carbono, levando a diminuição do custo na produção da enzima, que apresenta propriedades bastante…

▼ The widely existing MECs in Nature have inspired researchers to design synthetic analogs to promote the overall catalytic efficiency in vitro by co-localizing multiple enzymes to mimic the MECs' unique functionalities. A number of efforts have been devoted to designing synthetic MECs in the past couples of decades. This thesis work has focused on developing novel strategies based on enzyme immobilization to design nano-carriers for multi-enzyme co-localization to realize kinetics enhancement and strong control of spatial arrangement of the enzymes. Three distinct approaches have been designed using different attachment methods and platforms.
First, the multifunctional polystyrene nanoparticles were designed for immobilization and sequential co-localization of GOX and SHRP enzymes using covalent binding and streptavidin-biotin coupling attachment techniques. The sequentially co-localized GOX and SHRP on B/C-PS nanoparticles were capable of enhancing the overall conversion rate by approximately two-fold compared to the equivalent concentration of free enzymes in solution. Secondly, amphiphilic Pluronic-QD micelles were designed to co-localize multiple enzymes to investigate the effect of a more flexible substrate compared to the rigid polystyrene particles. FRET was used to characterize the adsorption of single enzymes and co-localization of multiple enzymes on the micelles. The two co-localized enzymes enhanced the overall conversion rate by ~100% compared to the equivalent concentration of free enzymes in solution, which is very comparable to the findings in the first study. To further investigate the spatial arrangement impact on enzyme co-localization, the precise DNA hybridization was investigated to direct multi-enzyme co-localization on PS nanoparticles. It was found that the co-localized GOX and HRP via DNA hybridization significantly improved the overall reaction efficiency by close to 200% as compared to single enzyme immobilization mixture. The co-localized enzymes also exhibited well stability over time.
In summary, the current research has demonstrated the superior potential of co-localized multiple enzymes in terms of kinetically-driven benefits. The spatial arrangement plays a significant role in mimicking the MECs in vitro. Looking forward, the design of sustainable and re-usable multi-enzyme biocatalysts would lead to both scientifically exciting research as well as economically viable designs for next generation catalysts and biosensors.

▼ Amine transaminases (ATA) catalyse the transfer of an amino group from one molecule and replaces a ketone or aldehyde with the amino group, the amino group on the amino-donor is replaced with a ketone or aldehyde. This enzyme, ATA from Chromobacterium violaceum, has previously been used to catalyse the reaction involving amphetamine, therefore, it might be possible to use this enzyme to convert amphetamine and the product absorbs in the UV spectrum and can therefore be measured spectrophotometrically. The aim of the project was to explore the possibility of using ATA in a portable biosensor for the detection of amphetamine. A literature study of commercially available portable biosensors was performed, activity of the free enzyme was tested against two substrates, methylbenzylamine (MBA) and amphetamine. Research on immobilization techniques, materials, and surface functionalization was done to chose suitable methods for immobilizing ATA. Two immobilization methods were suggested and one of the methods, ionic immobilization through His-tag towards Ni2+ on the surface, was tested for enzyme activity toward MBA. The enzyme activity of the free enzyme in solution towards MBA was comparable to previously reported enzyme activity, however, no enzyme activity towards amphetamine was observed. No activity was observed for the immobilized enzyme, but it might be due to the experimental design, more experiments need to be performed to draw conclusions.
Amintransaminaser (ATA) katalyserar överförandet av en amingrupp från en molekyl och ersätter en keton eller aldehyd med den amingruppen, amingruppen på amin-donatorn ersätts med en keton eller aldehyd. Det här enzymet, ATA från Chromobacterium violaceum (CvATA), har tidigare använts för att katalysera en reaktion som involverar amfetamin, därför skulle detta enzym kunna användas på amfetamin. Produkten av reaktionen absorberar i UV spektrumet och kan mätas med en spektrofotometer. Målet med projektet var att utforska möjligheten av att använda CvATA i en biosensor för att detektera amfetamin. En litteraturstudie på kommersiellt tillgängliga bärbara biosensorer genomfördes, aktiviteten av det fria enzymet testades mot två substrat, metylbenzylamin (MBA) och amfetamin. Information samlades om immobiliseringstekniker, material, och ytfunktionalisering gjordes för att välja ut lämpliga metoder för immobilisering av CvATA. Två immobiliseringsmetoder föreslogs och en av metoderna, immobilisering via enzymets His6-tagg och Ni2+ joner på ytan, testades för enzymaktivitet mot MBA. Enzymaktiviteten av det fria enzymet i lösning mot MBA var i samma storleksordning som tidigare rapporterad enzymaktivitet, men ingen enzymaktivitet mot amfetamin kunde observeras. Ingen aktivitet kunde observeras för det immobiliserade enzymet, men det kan vara på grund av designen på experimentet, fler experiment behöver göras för att kunna dra några fler slutsatser.

▼ Esta tese aborda quatro tópicos fundamentais para o desenvolvimento e aplicação de membranas eletroativas nanoestruturadas (MENs): (i) síntese e caracterização de nanopartículas (Nps) de prata, ouro e platina encapsuladas em moléculas de dendrímero poliamidoamina geração 4 (PAMAM); (ii) preparação de filmes automontados contendo PAMAM e Nps de ouro (PAMAM-Au); (iii) preparação de MENs utilizando sistema core-shell [email protected], onde Me é um mediador redox; (iv) imobilização enzimática em MENs e estudos biocatalíticos associados a processos eletroquímicos. As Nps foram caracterizadas observando-se a banda plasmônica em espectros na região do UV-Vis. Imagens de microscopia eletrônica de transmissão revelaram que PAMAM-Au e PAMAM-Pt possuem morfologias esféricas, enquanto o PAMAM-Ag forma grandes cristais com estruturas fractais. Estruturas cúbicas de face centrada caracterizaram os cristais formados de Au e Pt, sendo possível estimar os diâmetros (3,0 nm) das Nps pela equação de Scherrer em difratogramas de raios X, confirmados posteriormente por microscopia eletrônica por transmissão (TEM). Um indício de estabilização por encapsulamento do híbrido PAMAM-Au foi obtido de espectros de infravermelho (FTIR), a partir de modificações nas bandas das amidas. A cinética de reação para formação de PAMAM-Au também foi estudada. Filmes de PVS/PAMAM-Au (onde PVS é o poli(ácidovinilssulfônico)) foram preparados com 5 minutos de imersão, com a mesma quantidade de material sendo adsorvida em cada camada, segundo medidas de espectroscopia UV-Vis e voltametria cíclica (CV). No caso do eletrodo ITO-(PVS/PAMAM-Au), saltos de elétrons foram considerados o mecanismo de transporte de carga ao longo do filme. Um novo sistema core-shell [email protected] foi preparado, formando um sistema ITO-(PVS/PAMAM-Au)[email protected], em que a eletrodeposição de PB (azul da Prússia) foi monitorada medindo-se as correntes faradaicas durante os ciclos potenciodinâmicos. Outros mediadores de hexacianoferratos de metais de transição (Fe, Ni, Co e Cu) foram obtidos sobre eletrodos de ITO-(PVS/PAMAM-Au). De resultados de espectroscopia de impedância eletroquímica (EIS), verificou-se que a resistência de transporte de carga decresce na sequência CuHCF > FeHCF > NiHCF > CoHCF e todos os eletrodos apresentaram atividade catalítica para o peróxido de hidrogênio. Uma nova configuração de eletrodo, ITO-(PVS/PAMAM-Au)[email protected], pôde ser aplicada como dispositivo enzimático, com a glicose oxidase (GOx) sendo imobilizada por drop-coating na superfície do eletrodo e aplicada em experimentos de biocatálise. A glicose pôde ser detectada a 0,0 V (Ag/AgCl), com resposta linear até 100 µmol L-1 de glicose, sensibilidade de 115 nA mmol L-1, limite de detecção de 5,5 µmol L-1 e KMapp de 0,24 mmol L-1, mostrando que o sistema aqui proposto cria um ambiente propício para a enzima operar com alta atividade catalítica.

▼ Biomolecules are inherently less conductive. Therefore, bio-electronic devices that depend on conventional biomolecules to tether enzymes onto electrode supports and to shuttle electrons between the
enzyme and the electrode suffer from charge dissipation. This results in bioanondes with decreased current-voltage responses as a result of ohmic losses. Reducing the internal resistance is the simplest way of increasing the current-voltage response associated with bioanodes and has yet been an unmet challenge. A novel iron (II) sulfide (FeS) based molecular wiring system was developed for immobilizing glycerol dehydrogenase on a gold electrode surface. Amperometric and potentiometric analyses with glycerol dehydrogenase-based model electrodes confirmed the ability of this single-molecule to remarkably amplify, about ten-fold increase in current and up to 24% increase in voltage outputs, as compared to electrodes fabricated with the conventional Pyrroloquinoline quinone-based composite molecular wiring system. FeS achieves the dual purpose of anchoring the
enzyme to the gold electrode while also mediating electron shuttling between coenzyme and the electrode surface. This dual functionality allows usage of a single-molecular wire to foster electrical communication between the
enzyme and the electrode instead of the conventional multi-molecular wiring system and in turn reducing the internal resistance of the electrode. The resulting increase in current/voltage response opens up a wide range of possibilities for developing efficient bio-electrodes for bioelectronics applications.

▼ With highly evolved structures and function, proteins have an extraordinarily diverse range of capabilities. In order to take advantage of their unparalleled specificity in the field of chemical biology, bioconjugation methods can be used to produce synthetically modified proteins. As applications for protein-based materials are becoming ever-increasingly complex, there is a constant need for methodologies that can covalently modify protein substrates. More specifically, there is a requirement for reliable and chemoselective reactions that result in well-defined bioconjugates that are modified in a single location. We have developed a protein transamination strategy that uses N-methylpyridinium-4-carboxaldehyde benzenesulfonate salt (Rapoport's salt) to oxidize the N-terminal amine to a ketone or aldehyde functionality. We have identified high-yielding conditions for this reaction, such as N-terminal sequence and pH, and shown its applicability in the modification of several protein systems. In addition, we have used N-terminal protein modification methodologies in the synthesis of protein-DNA conjugates, towards the goal of developing a generalizable DNA-directed protein immobilization platform. Overall, the work presented herein expands the toolkit of methodologies available for building protein-based materials.

У оквиру ове тезе испитивана је могућност ензимског
поступка синтезе метил естара масних киселина (биодизела) из биљног
уља, поступком трансестерификације. Испитано је каталитичко дејство
липаза из различитих извора са аспекта трансестерификационе
активности и стабилности у системима без органског растварача.
Користиле су се комерцијалне липазе из различитих микроорганизама
(Candida rugosa, Rhizomucor miehei, Candida antarctica) а потом је
методом вишефакторних експерименталних планова (централни
композициони ротатабилни план) испитан утицај различитих
параметара: температуре, садржаја воде у систему, количине додатог
ензима, моларног односа метанол/уље као и начина извођења процеса
на принос метил естара масних киселина. Испитана је могућност
примене различитих ацил акцептора и утврђено је да се као најбољи
показао метил ацетат. Захваљујући примени овог ацил акцептора
омогућена је оптимизација реакторског система. Испитали су се
утицаји различитих процесних параметара и режима рада биореактора
на продуктивност имобилисаног система. Други део рада се фокусирао
на технике имобилизације. Анализирана је ковалентна имобилизација
нативне липазе из C. rugosa и нативне липазе из C. antarctica на
полимерним носачима које садрже епоксидне групе и афинитет
добијеног имобилисаног ензима према супстрату. Испитана је
ефикасност модификације комерцијалног носача Eupergit® C 250L
помоћу цистеина и глутаралдехида ради добијања имолиблисаног
система веће стабилности. Утврђено је да се овако имобилисана
липаза из C. antarctica може успешно користити као биокатализатор у
синтези биодизела, при чему се применом ове липазе добијају приноси
биодизела у рангу приноса које дају комерцијални препарати са
имобилисаном липазом из C. antarctica.

Peroksidaza iz soje (SBP, E.C. 1.11.1.7) je enzim
koji pripada klasi III biljnih peroksidaza i katalizuje oksidaciju
i polimerizaciju različitih fenolnih jedinjenja u prisustvu vodonik
peroksida kao supstrata. Nalazi se u semenom omotaču soje koji
predstavlja jeftini nusproizvod i polazni materijal za izolovanje
velike količine sirovog enzima. Izolovana SBP je imobilizovana
primenom dve kovalentne metode na seriju makroporoznih kopolimera
poli(GMA-co-EGDMA) različitih dijametara pora. Glutaraldehidni
metod imobilizacije se pokazao boljim od perjodatnog a najveća
specifična aktivnost od 23 IU/g dobijena je na kopolimeru veličine
pora od 120 nm. Imobilizovana peroksidaza pokazala je veću termalnu
stabilnost i stabilnost u organskom rastvaraču, aktivnost u širem
opsegu pH i 2,86 puta veću Km vrednost za pirogalol u odnosu na
rastvorni enzim. Sintetisana je serija modifikovanih pektina
oksidacijom perjodatom u molarnom odnosu od 2,5 do 20 mol% i
naknadnom reduktivnom aminacijom tiraminom i cijanoborhidridom.
Dobijeni tiramin-pektini prave stabilne hidrogelove umrežavanjem

mikro-kuglica hidrogela nastalih enzimskom polimerizacijom
modifikovanog pektina u emulziji sa najvećom specifičnom aktivnošću
postignutom na tiramin-pektinu oksidovanom 5 mol% perjodatom.
Imobilizovana SBP je pored šireg pH optimuma pokazala i veću
termalnu stabilnost i stabilnost u organskom rastvaraču u odnosu na
slobodan enzim. Mikrokuglice sa imobilizovanom SBP zadržale su 50%

▼ For decades, the drug manufacture has been using polluting reagents that are released in the environment. Nowadays, greener production modes are being targeted. In this direction, biocatalysis probably represents a decisive opportunity. Transaminases (TA) have already been used for the green production of chiral amines (drug precursors). There are however two main limitations to the use of TA in such organic synthesis: (1) the difficulty to recover the free enzymes after a batch reaction, (2) the low yield for chiral amines, owing to unfavourable thermodynamics. To tackle these challenges, the main objectives of this thesis are (i) developing heterogeneous biocatalysts using suitable carriers and efficient immobilization methods; (ii) developing a continuous flow biocatalytic reactor for transamination reactions; (iii) implementing strategies for the displacement of the thermodynamic equilibrium. TA are efficiently immobilized onto APTES-functionalized macrocellular silica monoliths through covalent grafting using glutaraldehyde as a coupling agent. The monoliths can be mounted in a simple flow set-up. In the flow mode, TA are active and stable over long period of time, and enantioselectivity is retained. An optimized APTES functionalization method was developed, that allowed to boost the enzymatic activity. The influence of temperature on enzyme impregnation was also highlighted. Hydrophobic silica monoliths were studied as supports, but, hydrophobicity appeared to have no impact on the enzyme immobilization and activity. Using a three-enzyme system to consume the co-product, the equilibrium could be displaced towards the formation of the chiral amine. In flow mode, such strategy was successful only when the added enzymes were free and in high concentration. Finally, we show that our flow system can be used to immobilize another type of enzyme (tyrosine ammonia-lyase), to design other efficient flow mode biocatalytic processes for amine synthesis.

▼ This thesis describes the design, synthesis, and some new applications of aqueous microgels. One research objective was to prepare lanthanide-containing microgels which are resistant to lanthanide ion leaching in aqueous media and can be used in bead-based assays. I report the synthesis of lanthanide phosphate (LnPO4) nanocrystals embedded in poly(NIPAM/VCL/MAA) copolymer microgels. Here the microgels were first ion-exchanged with Ln3+ and then treated with PBS buffer to form LnPO4 crystals. The TEM images of the TbPO4-containing microgels in combination with SAXS studies show remarkable needle-like nanocrystals distributed throughout the microgel. Mass cytometry studies showed that these microgels resist ion leaching in different buffers.
Another direction in my Ph.D. research was to design and synthesize temperature-invariant aqueous microgels that would preserve their dimensions and colloidal stability upon heating in water, and can serve as a host for enzymes in high-temperature reactions. For this purpose, I prepared poly(N-hydroxyethyl acrylamide) (PHEAA) microgels through a two-step synthesis. First, I prepared a precursor particle of poly[di(ethylene glycol) acrylate] in water, and then, these particles were subjected to aminolysis in dioxane with a mixture of ethanolamine and ethylenediamine to form to PHEAA-NH2 microgels. As a proof-of-concept study, I attached the
enzyme horseradish peroxidase (HRP) to the microgels. Kinetic studies showed that
immobilization led to improved
enzyme stability at high temperatures compared to the native
enzyme.
I also examined the effect of the thermal response of microgels on the activity of enzymes. I prepared the thermo-responsive poly[oligo(ethylene glycol) methacrylate] (PEGMA) microgels and attached aminotetraethyleneglycol pendant groups to these microgels to act as a spacer and to make them biofunctionalizable. I found no discontinuous change in the activity of the immobilized
enzyme as the microgel was heated through its VPTT. This study serves a guide for the biofunctionalization of protein repellent PEGMA microgels.

▼ Rhodococcus rhodochrous DAP 96253, a well-known industrial bacterium, had various 1-hexene monooxygenase (1-HMO) activities when grown on YEMEA plates supplemented with eight different carbohydrates. Besides, 1-HMO exhibited different storage temperature preferences. Lactose could induce the highest 1-HMO activity in
R. rhodochrous DAP 96253 while the cells showed the lowest 1-HMO activity when trehalose was the supplement. The 1-HMO activity of
R. rhodochrous DAP 96253 was not maintained when stored at 37°C as well as at 4°C and 25°C. Trehalose-induced 1-HMO activity of
R. rhodochrous DAP 96253 was more stable from Day 0 to Day 21 at all these three temperatures, compared with the other seven carbohydrates.
Immobilization of enzymes can maintain
enzyme activity longer, offer easier
enzyme storage conditions and make some enzymes reusable, much research has been done in this area. In this study,
R. rhodochrous DAP 96253, grown on YEMEA plates supplemented by glucose and urea, was investigated using whole bananas as the inducer of 1-HMO activity and different
immobilization methods to maintain this
enzyme activity. It was shown that calcium-alginate polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) beads could maintain 1-HMO activity of
R. rhodochrous DAP 96253 more stable than calcium-alginate beads. Whole bananas exhibited very obvious effects of inducing 1-HMO activity of
R. rhodochrous DAP 96253.
A number of recent studies have clearly demonstrated that induced cells of
R. rhodochrous DAP 96253 can prolong the shelf-life of post-harvested fruits. With USDA estimates of 40% of all harvested produce in the US not being consumed because of loss of quality, the ability to extend the period of ripeness of produce has great potential to improve the quality of nutrition. Modification or degradation of those signals (primary and secondary) associated with ripening in fruit or the perception of those signals represents a potential mode of action for delayed ripening by induced cells of
R. rhodochrous DAP 96253. Ethylene and cyanide are the two primary signals in ripening. In this study, the role of 1-HMO from induced cells was investigated by time-course experiments focusing on 1-HMO activity and stability. In addition, fruit volatile organic compounds (VOCs) were detected and compared by GC-FID and GC/MS over the course of fruit ripening. The results show a correlation between 1-HMO activity and stability in delayed fruit ripening. It was further demonstrated that the presence of secondary signal fruit VOCs enhanced 1-HMO activity. Aromatic profiles of treated fruits, by GC-FID and GC/MS, show a consistent picture of VOCs associated with earlier fruit ripening stages.

▼ The increasing worldwide contamination of freshwater system with micro-pollutants emerges as a critical environmental problem, which has driven the search for novel mitigation approaches. The use of enzymes such as laccase as biocatalyst has been recognised as a promising approach for micro-pollutants removal. However, rapid denaturation of the free
enzyme and its difficulty in recycling and reuse restrict its wider application, and efficient
enzyme immobilization and bioreactor design are required.In this study, and two membrane bioreactors were proposed for carbamazepine (CBZ) degradation: the hybrid membrane system where laccase-immobilized TiO2 nanoparticles were suspended in the feed solution, and the biocatalytic membrane reactor where laccase was immobilised on TiO2 coated membrane surface. Using p-coumaric acid as a mediator, efficient CBZ removal (up to 71%) was achieved with the hybrid membrane reactor. Functionalized TiO2 nanoparticles were further applied to immobilize crude
enzyme extracts from P. ostreatus culture. The resultant biocatalytic particles had comparable performance to the immobilized purified commercial laccase and showed efficient bisphenol-A and CBZ removal in the hybrid reactor.In addition, a cross-linked carbon nanotubes (CNTs) based membrane was prepared, which exhibited high effectiveness as support for physical adsorption of laccase. The active laccase coating on CNTs membrane can be renewed after simple cleaning and re-
immobilization. The biocatalytic membrane also showed substantial improvement in micro-pollutant removal compared with the membrane having no
enzyme. At last, it is demonstrated that the intramolecular electron transfer within single
enzyme molecule is an important alternative pathway which can be harnessed to generate electricity. By decoupling the redox reaction within laccase, efficient electricity production from unconventional fuels including recalcitrant pollutants and/or toxic organic was obtained in a sole-laccase based enzymatic fuel cell. The intramolecular electron-harnessing concept was also demonstrated with other enzymes, including the power generation during CO2 bioconversion to formate catalysed by formate dehydrogenase. The novel enzymatic power generation is shown to be potentially feasible utilizing wastewater as fuel as well as occurring in tandem with driving bioconversion of chemical feedstock from CO2.

▼ Bioactive materials are critical in many applications in the fields ranging from antibiofouling coatings to tissue engineering to biosensing devices. The construction of bioactive materials generally involves dispersion of bioactive components such as biocides, peptides or proteins in organic or inorganic matrices. However, when these bioactive components are incorporated to such matrices, their functionalities may be significantly hindered. As a result, it has spurred great attention seeking guidelines for future rational design and development of bioactive materials with optimal functionalities. This thesis proposes optimization strategies by investigating interfacial molecular interactions of various bioactive materials in situ using surface specific spectroscopies and correlating the structural and orientational information to their activity.
Firstly, two biocide-incorporated antifouling polymeric materials are characterized using sum frequency generations vibrational spectroscopy at solid/liquid interfaces. The interaction mechanism is unraveled by varying both biocidal and the polymer components of the system. The structure of the alkyl chains from the biocidal components is determined and by comparing to their antifouling performance, it is concluded that the protruding-out state offers the best antifouling activity. Factors that affect the structure of the biocidal components are examined. Secondly, antimicrobial peptides are immobilized to various surface platforms. The
immobilization processes are thoroughly monitored and the final immobilized peptide structures and orientations are determined using spectroscopic technique. The
immobilization environment, the location of the attachment point and the peptide sequence all play important roles in determining the
immobilization process and the final state of the immobilized peptides. Finally, a model
enzyme is immobilized to solid surfaces and characterized by using combined spectroscopic measurements. These results are further correlated to the enzymatic activities and confirmed by molecular dynamics simulations performed by our collaborators. It is concluded that the surface properties, the location of the attachment point, the secondary structure of the attachment point are factors influencing the immobilized
enzyme structure and further determining the activity and stability of the immobilized
enzyme. In all, this thesis provides systematic understanding how structural differences are related to the difference in the functionality of the bioactive materials under study based on which the optimization designing rules are proposed.

U okviru ove teze, pomoću lipaze iz Candida rugosa,
sintetisani su 4,6-disupstituisani-3-cijano-2-piridoni. Najpre je,
kao najprostiji molekul, sintetisan 4,6-dimetil-3-cijano-2-piridon,
a zatim i 4-etoksimetil-6-metil-3-cijano-2-piridon, koji
predstavlja prekursor vitamina B6. U cilju određivanja optimalnih
uslova za njihovu sintezu metodom odzivnih površina (RSM) ispitan
je uticaj tri reakciona faktora i to: temperature, molskog odnosa
supstrata i koncentracije enzima. Nakon toga je, na utvrđenim
optimalnim uslovima, ispitivana enzimska kinetika i na osnovu
dobijenih rezultata, modelovanjem regresionim modelom drugog reda,
utvrđeno da se ove reakcije mogu opisati ping–pong bi–ter modelom
sa inhibicijom cijanoacetamidom. U drugom delu disertacije ispitana
je imobilizacija lipaze adsorpcijom ili kovalentnim vezivanjem na
različite nosače. Imobilizacijom na višeslojne ugljenične nanocevi
postignute su izuzetno velike količine vezanog enzima od čak 1,4 mg
po 1 mg nosača. Ustanovljeno je da se adsorpcijom na nemodifikovane
ugljenične nanocevi dobijaju imobilizati kod kojih je lipaza
zadržala najveći procenat aktivnosti, i pri imobilizaciji u puferu
veće jonske jačine iznosi i do 85 %. Imobilizati najveće ukupne
aktivnosti dobijaju se vezivanjem na oksidovane nanocevi u uslovima
koji promovišu kovalentno vezivanje. Ispitivanjem imobilizata
najboljih svojstava u reakciji sinteze

sugars being synthesized as products. A biomimetic approach to
capturing carbon dioxide and using it to synthesize useful
chemicals, by way of these enzymes in a bioprocess, has been
proposed. To achieve this, active enzymes must be harvested and
their kinetic properties need to be characterized. Optimal process
conditions must be established, with an appropriate enzyme
immobilization technique being applied to ameliorate the overall
bioprocess. In this work, the phosphoribulokinase enzyme was
produced in the bacterial cell platform Escherichia coli using
molecular cloning techniques. The kinetic conditions affecting the
rates of the enzymes ribose 5-phosphate isomerase A from E. coli,
and phosphoribulokinase from Synechococcus elongatus, were locally
optimized through surface response methodology and mathematical
modeling. These models predicted the optimal pH levels,
temperature, substrate concentration and other factors used in the
assays. The rate of ribose 5-phosphate isomerase product formation
under optimized conditions showed an increase of about 37 % over
the measured rate under initial conditions, while that of
phosphoribulokinase activity increased around 21 %. Enzyme
characterization revealed Km constants for the sugar substrates to
be 0.12 mM for phosphoribulokinase and 9.4 mM for ribose
5-phosphate isomerase, with half-lives of 177 minutes and 89 hours,
respectively, at room temperature. Furthermore, immobilization via
encapsulation within polymersomes was investigated by using a
digestive assay and fluorescence correlation spectroscopy. The
encapsulation efficiency of the enzyme Rpi was found to be about 23
%. This represents a final enzyme concentration of 1.2 µM having
been encapsulated. The enzyme phosphoribulokinase was successfully
purified from a bacterial platform. This enzyme and ribose
5-phosphate isomerase were characterized using reaction kinetics,
resulting in calculated half-lives and Michaelis constants. Locally
optimized reaction conditions were found through experimental
modeling, resulting in apparent increases in the reaction rate of
both of the enzymes. The enzyme ribose 5-phosphate isomerase was
successfully encapsulated within polymersomes.

▼ Fruto-oligossacarídeos (FOS) são fibras prebióticas com poder adoçante considerável, sendo um produto de alto valor para a indústria de alimentos. Açúcar invertido é o produto da hidrólise da sacarose possuindo maior poder adoçante, menor susceptibilidade à cristalização e maior higroscopicidade com relação à sacarose, sendo de grande interesse industrial. Ambos produtos podem ser produzidos por reações enzimáticas, utilizando β-frutosiltransferase e β- frutofuranosidase respectivamente, no entanto processos enzimáticos costumam ser caros devido ao alto custo e baixa estabilidade de enzimas. Esses fatores podem ser contornados com a imobilização da enzima, permitindo a reutilização e por vezes aumentando a estabilidade. No presente trabalho a enzima β-frutosiltransferase proveniente de um extrato comercial de Aspergillus aculeatus (Viscozyme L) foi parcialmente purificada, com resina de troca iônica, imobilizada covalentemente em esferas de quitosana e utilizada na produção de FOS. O processo de purificação aumentou a atividade específica em 6 vezes. A estabilidade do biocatalisador imobilizado foi avaliada em 50 bateladas para produção de FOS, foi observado cerca de 55 % de rendimento em cada batelada, sem perda de atividade detectada após as utilizações. Após esse experimento foi testada a utilização das esferas em reatores contínuos com leito fixo e fluidizado, com rendimentos de 59 % e 54 % respectivamente. A produção de açúcar invertido foi feita utilizando a enzima Maxinvert L (β-frutofuranosidase de Saccharomyces cerevisiae) que foi imobilizada, da mesma forma, em esferas de quitosana e sua utilização foi testada em reatores de leito fixo e fluidizado com rendimentos de 98 % e 94 % respectivamente. Os reatores de leito fixo possuem potencial para estudos envolvendo aplicações industriais tanto para produção de FOS quanto para produção de Açúcar Invertido.
Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) are prebiotic fibre with sweetening power, being a highvalue product for the food industry. Invert sugar is the product of sucrose hydrolysis; it has a higher sweetening power, it is less susceptible to crystallization and has a higher hygroscopicity than regular sugar. Finding many uses in food industry processes. Both products can be obtained by enzymatic reactions using β-fructosyltransferase and β- fructofuranosidase, respectively. However, enzymatic processes are often costly because of high enzymatic cost and lack of operational stability. These drawbacks can be overcome by immobilization of enzyme, enabling reuses and usually increasing its stability. In the present work, β-fructofuranosidase from a commercial preparation from Aspergillus aculeatus (Viscozyme L) was partially purified, covalently immobilized on chitosan spheres and used for FOS production. Partial purification resulted in a 6-fold increase in specific activity. Operational stability of biocatalyst was evaluated along 50 batches, resulting in around 55 % yield on each batch and no loss of activity after batches. The immobilized biocatalyst was also used…

▼ Pressing performance demands require next-generation biosensors to detect target chemical and biological molecules with higher sensitivity, shorter response times, and lower detection limit. Micro- and nanoscale devices are attractive for a wide range of biosensor applications since at small scale, in addition to being more compact, the device may exhibit improved performance. The benefits include minimization of tissue damage for implantable devices, improved spatial resolution and sensitivity, as well as increased surface charge to mass ratio, which is important for the performance of our novel technology for nucleic acid detection described below. Borrowing from the processing technologies used in the semiconductor industry, we implemented micromachining techniques to fabricate devices at both the micro- and nanoscale. In this dissertation, we present our work on the fabrication and characterization of two next-generation biosensors. The first device we fabricated is a sequence-specific nucleic acid sensor based on the blockage of a nanopore. Current methods for nucleic acid detection generally rely on polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and fluorescent labeling, however, these methods render the devices slow, expensive, complex, and bulky. In order to address these limitations, a new sensor was fabricated from a single glass wafer, consisting of a glass nanopore in a thin glass membrane. For nanopore sensing, low frequency noise is critical since it limits the discrimination of signal change based on target analyte movement from the fluctuation of noise. To further our understanding of nanopores, we observed how different pore geometries affect noise characteristics, and then compared this newly developed glass nanopore to conventional Si-based nanopores. Based on the analysis, low-noise glass nanopores, suitable for sequence-specific nucleic acid detection, were fabricated. By scaling down the pore diameter to the nano-regime, 1 aM detection of 16S rRNA from Escherichia coli was demonstrated even in the presence of a million-fold background of RNA from Pseudomona putida. This new platform for the PCR-free, optics-free, label-free sequence-specific nucleic acid detection shows the potential to detect pathogens in body fluids, food, or water. In addition, we developed a new method to transfer enzyme to a microelectrode array on an implantable microprobe, which enables fabrication of better performing microprobes for the sensing of multiple neurochemicals in vivo. Monitoring the release of neurotransmitters in real-time offers valuable information necessary to understand neurological disorders and abnormal behaviors. We employed polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) stamping to transfer enzyme onto microelectrode array microprobes. A model enzyme, glucose oxidase (GOx), was stamped onto the surface of disk electrodes to test the feasibility of PDMS stamping for biosensor fabrication. The model sensor showed a good combination of performance (29 μA/mM cm2 sensitivity and 4 μM detection limit) proving that PDMS stamping offers a…

▼ Biodiesel consiste de ésteres alquílicos de ácidos graxos produzidos pela transesterificação de triglicerídeos com álcoois de cadeia curta. Tradicionalmente, a reação ocorre na presença de catalisadores químicos, como álcalis ou ácidos. A utilização alternativa de lipases como biocatalisadores na reação de síntese do biodiesel não gera materiais residuais tóxicos, e o glicerol pode ser facilmente recuperado sem um processamento complexo. Neste trabalho estudou-se a síntese de biodiesel através da transesterificação enzimática de óleos vegetais e álcoois de cadeia curta catalisada pela lipase de Thermomyces lanuginosus (TLL). Primeiramente, as condições da reação de transesterificação, entre óleo de soja e etanol catalisada pela TLL em sua forma livre foram otimizadas através de planejamento experimental e da metodologia de superfície de resposta. A seguir, foram estudadas as condições para a reação catalisada pela TLL imobilizada comercial (Lipozyme TL-IM). Na etapa seguinte foram avaliados diferentes óleos vegetais (óleo de soja, óleo de girassol e óleo de arroz) e álcoois (metanol, etanol, propanol e butanol), na reação de transesterificação catalisada por três derivados enzimáticos comerciais de lipases de diferentes fontes (Lipozyme TL-IM, Novozym 435, Lipozyme RMIM), onde se verificou que cada lipase apresentou uma especificidade diferente em relação ao álcool preferente para a reação de transesterificação. Além disso, a reação utilizando diferentes óleos vegetais apresentou resultados semelhantes, mostrando ser este um fator mais dependente do ponto de vista econômico que processual. Também se estudou diferentes tratamentos para melhorar o reuso da lipase imobilizada, onde a lavagem do derivado com n-hexano, após cada ciclo, manteve a atividade da lipase em torno de 90% da atividade inicial após sete ciclos. Prosseguindo, foi estudada a imobilização e estabilização da TLL através da ligação covalente multipontual em suporte glioxil-agarose. Para obter isto se procedeu a aminação química da superfície da enzima, o que permitiu a obtenção de um derivado com alto grau de imobilização e alta estabilidade quanto à inativação por temperatura e solventes orgânicos. A seguir avaliou-se a possibilidade de reativação de derivados submetidos a processos de inativação. Em um primeiro momento os estudos foram realizados com derivados de TLL imobilizada unipontualmente em agarose ativada com brometo de cianogênio, onde foi possível obter a reativação completa do derivado inativado por solventes orgânicos através de incubação em meio aquoso. Verificou-se também que um dos principais pontos que dificultam a reativação de lipases é a recuperação do mecanismo de abertura do lid, que é facilitado com a presença de detergentes. Logo, estudos de reativação com derivados imobilizados por ligação covalente multipontual, mostraram que este tipo de imobilização auxilia no processo de reativação por oferecer mais pontos de referência no momento da reativação. A etapa final deste trabalho foi a aplicação do derivado de TLL imobilizado…
